Dr. Kenneth Mayer, Director of Medical Research and Co-Chair of The Fenway Institute, was our Keynote Speaker, with a presentation titled: "Community Health Centers and Translational Clinical Research: The Fenway Health Experience". He inspired us with his description of the work of The Fenway Institute and how research to improve the lives of people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender, and people with HIV/AIDS not only greatly improved the health of many people in the community, but also helped to create a strong and growing health center.

The Symposium also featured over 40 posters presented by many academic-community partnered research projects, community organizations, and students.

Breakout sessions included:
